Solution

Breathing:

  1. It is a process by which air moves into and from the lungs to facilitate gaseous exchange with the internal environment.
  2. Unconscious breathing is controlled by the respiratory centers present in the medulla and pons of the brainstem that causes the continuation of breathing even during sleep.
